1998 Meursault Clos de la Barre

The white fruit-scented 1998 Meursault Clos de la Barre has good depth to its hazelnut and yellow fruit-flavored personality. This medium-bodied offering would have merited a higher score if its character had not dissipated rather quickly to reveal a dryish, somewhat dusty finish. Drink it over the next 4-5 years.
